No one could accuse those eight

Cummins said to-day:

I believe the Governme.nl .diould
have charge of this celebration and my
plan is to organize a Meet made up oft

I am convinced that if this plan can be

WAITERS QUIT "FOOTBALL DAY.'
Wall. Out at Hotel Tall aa Vale
llarvard Ouril. Walk In.
Nkw Havrk, Conn., Nov. 23. -Just as
1,000 football guests were crowding Into
the Hotel Taft dining rooms for dinner
to-night fifty waiters. Imported from
New York to help out the hotel staff
over the Yale-Harvard football rush, de
cided to quiet und attempted to Induce
the regular 12fi waiters of thn hotel to
go out with them. They refused. Kach
of the new men would take an order
and then walk out, leaving the hotel
guests to wait for their dinner. After
this happened onco or twice the man
agement found It was all a plan to crip
ple the hotel on Its busiest night. The
three dining rooms of the hotel were
filled with guests and the management
had thrown open also the big ball
room on the top floor. '
When It became apparent that the
auxiliary force of the establishment was
'caving word was sent the. police station
and half n dozen policemen went to the
hotel In case there wns any trouble.
Hut there was no disorder, the men
merely walking out. The regular staff
of wulters remained on their Jobs, so
that the hotel guests were all cared for.
Those guests who wore delayed In get
ting their orders when they learned the
cause took It good naturcdly.
Last fall at commencement time a slm
i liar strike was started by men Imported
from New York to help out the regular
force. At the time a big delegation of
the Yalo students filed Into the dining
room and served tho dinner to the hotel
guests so ftiot there was no delay, The
titrlke tu-nlght, It was stated, was a re
tnllatlve one Inaugurated In the main by
the same men who went out last June.

1 am not convinced of the truth of this
view and feel that it is very unwino thus
to open the door to taking sides on other
eldest ions before we have gained the vote

As Mrs. Belmont has about supported
the New York movement out of her own
ocket and has come to tho aid of the
national iiSFnciatiou at many critical
times her loss would Im severely felt, it
is believed. Only last night she gave

she was an officer when she went into
the Bull Mooso campaign and lastly
said that sho would never have, accepted
the position of first vice-president if ahu
liad thought sho thereby bound herself
to a negative attitude on questions of
great public moment.
"I felt that standing on a progressive
platform I had tho Ix-st oportunity for
putting the suffrago cause bofom the
public I had ever had," said Misa Addams.
"I don't think my action changed any
body's altitude toward either me or the
suffrage movement. Personally. I lo
liove that if we seo hope of gaining our
end through one political party wo should
liack that-party. I did not realize how my
action looked to others until certain
articles began to appear attacking me for
ho doing."
In tlie counting of tho vote the name
of Dr. Anna Shaw, the national presi
dent, was not called until last, when,
asked if sho cared to cost a ballot, she
replied, "Certainly; I have been struggling
for yearn to got a vote,"
Tho vote was taken by State delega
tions, not by Individual delegates.
In tho course of her argument Mrs.
Harper said that two Socialist members
of the official board had oauged tn bo sent
out on UioofTloial literature of the associa

The chair called upon Mrs. Dennett

guilty, "to say the least, of a gross mis

Mrs. Crosby wanted to read her reso

with;
"Mrs. Harper has been guilty of many
misstatements. Your word that ahe has
misstated you ia sufficient. You may read

She had gone about sot) yards from the
Jersey side of the liver when'the Gen.
Putnam, a boat used for the transfer of
Immigrants, came upstreum loaded with
foreigners bound from Kills Island to
the Jersey railroad stations. The Gn.
Putnam struck the Hlnghaintuu on the
alar board side, omldshlp., tearing away
several feet of the ferryboat's overhang
und breaking four of the windows In the
women's cabin. So far ns wa lt'irried
last night the hull of the ferryboat Waa
lift! ilumi,frfi! '
I The women In the Hlnghnmtou's taliln
were tumbled from their seats und were
badly frightened. One of them got hold
of three life preservers und held them
on one. urm. Later when the officers
of Ihe boat assured the passengera
there was no danger the same woman
got four more of the life preservers and
was seen tugging the seven ubout the
deck. '
The passengers In the automobiles,
men und women, were considerably
shaken up and all left their cars. A
truckman whose truck and horses stood
lust behind the automobiles became
alarmed and stripped down to his shirt
and trousers and unharnessed hla
horses to give them a chance for lite.
These signs of alarm tended to excite
the other passengers.
When the first excitement was at Its
height a HaHlmnre and Ohio Railroad
tug, the John J. Cowen. with a float
lashed to her side, came along down
stream and, unable to dodge the Ulng-
hamton, ran Into her port side. The
blow waa not particularly heavy, but
the float wedged her nose under the
Blnghamton's overhang and hoisted her
up out of the water on that side. The
second collision, coming so soon after
the first, completed the fright of the
ferryboat's passengers.
Capt. Compton of the Blnghamton
sent men to ascertain the damage to
his craft and found that It was not of a
serious nature so far as life was con
cerned. He then sent members of the
crew among the passengers to quiet
them while the ferryboat was backed
up to the slip she had Just left For all
tho excitement It was seen that nobody
waa hurt and the passengers were dis
charged and directed to the next boat
of the line.
When the paasengers were all off
Capt. Compton took his boat up the
rive. to the ropalr docks of the com
pany at the foot of Fourteenth street,
Hohoken. and laid her up.
One of the passengers on the Blng
hamton said ho believed the ferryboat's

SINISTER RUMORS

.rtml C.ihle fletnurr lo Tnt Sin
London, No. 2'J. Most sinister ru
mors have been coming all day from
European capitals where diplomatists
have an Interested eye on the Balkan
situation. From Vienna und St. Peters
burg and Berlin the wires tell of tha
mobilization of troops und general prep
aration for military eventualities.
Although aa promptly as such a story
springs up there comes 11 n official de
nial on Its heel, the rumors still per
sist that not only Austria and Russia
are getting their lighting men In shape
but that the reservists of five German
army corps, numbering 130,000 man,
have been ordered to rejoin their regl
ments.
In the meantime there Is fighting
again between Turk and Bulgar on the
Tchataldja lines and the Ottoman fight
era have tried again to drive the enemy
from beleagured Adrianople In what will
probably be their laat sally. For cholera
there and at Tchataldja is doing more
to maJte the Turk come to term than
the shells of the beapent Bulgara.
It Is In Austria that the diplomatists
find the most extensive movements of
MvKHnv n and l.lta anil II la fpnm
...... ... "
Austria that the most conflicting re
ports or mat nation's preparations art
coming. For to-day, according to ta
nawa agency despatch, a strict censor
ship of all telegrams waa oratred y
the Government.
It la known at leaat that the Austria
Dan u oe nonua, consisting 01 two moni
tors, two torpedo boats and four gun
boats, started for Belgrade this 'after
noon. There Is no Indication that thla
dropping down upon Servta's capital la
In any way Indicative of hostility on
Austria's part, but considering the
strained relations of tho two countries
the movement Is regarded as gravely
significant.
There was the greatest excitement In
Budapest when the flotilla steamed
down the Danube, but no one could tell
Just what waa going to happen. The
excitement was not abated by an order
for all the street car employees In Buda
pest to report to their reserve regi
ment commanders to-morrow.
In Berlin It Is understood that the
Kaiser and Archduke Francis Ferdi
nand, heir to the Austrian throne, have
discussed the Balkan situation. Ona
report of their conference had It that
they agreed thut there might be hope of
Intervention on the part of Russia In
the present prospect of n clash between
Austria and Servla. Russia's Influence
at Belgrade Is overwhelming and a
word from St. Petersburg might cool
the little country.
And nt the same time that Franch
Ferdlnund arrived In Berlin came F.'eld
Marshal Blaalus Schemua, chle'f of
Staff of the Austro-Hungarlan army.
No sooner had he arrived than official
dom was buy explaining his visit aj
one of the customary exchanges of
courtesies between the officials of Ber
lin and Vienna. But even the semi
official newspaper that publish long
editorials In thn hope of calming tho
public cannot accept so naive an ex
planation. The Berliner Taoeblatt's Vienna cor
respondent telegraphs:
"Everything depend" upon Russia.
We will not attack, but we must pre
pare for eventualities."
The one development of the day moat
pleasing tn Austria waa the declaration
of Independence of the Albanian chief
tains, fro a nominally Independent Al
bania will be under Austria's control
and she haa awaited anxiously for Just
such a declaration. Now, say th Aus
trian, Servla must make up her mind
one way or the other as to Juat how she
Is to stand and the relations between
Austria and Servla on the Albanian
question come to a head. There seem
to be little doubt In the chancelleries as
to whence came the Inspiration for the
declaration of the Albanians.
